--------------------------------------------
> Use a more human-readable flag to switch to a different authorization provider

> Key: IMPALA-8309
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-8309
> Project: IMPALA
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Backend
> Reporter: Fredy Wijaya
> Assignee: Austin Nobis
> Priority: Minor
>
> We currently use authorization_factory_class flag to switch to a different
> authorization provider, which is useful for any third party to provide an
> implementation of authorization provider. Since, Sentry and Ranger are
> officially supported by Impala, we should have a flag, i.e.
> authorization_provider=[sentry|ranger] to easily switch between officially
> supported authorization providers.
> At the time of this writing, the existing {{authorization_factory_class}}
> flag is being retained but its default value removed. If present, it will
> take precedence over the {{authorization_provider}} flag being added.
